Steven Frank on Blogging

Steven Frank, of Panic, explains the “existential crisis” he’s having when it comes to blogging:

Depending on which side of the bed I wake up on, blogging is either the vainest possible act of self-puffery, practiced by those who want to believe they are a lot more important than they actually are, or an unprecedented revolution in human communication, no less important of a historical record than the hand-written letters and journals of centuries past.

Sometimes I’ll land on both sides of that fence in the same day. No wonder I’m confused.

Indeed.
